Mint forks libAdwaita to provide theme support |
 |
The Linux Mint project is working to make applications written with the GTK development libraries look more natural on desktop environments other than GNOME. The project's GitHub page explains: "libAdapta is libAdwaita with theme support and a few extra. It provides the same features and the same look as libAdwaita by default. In desktop environments which provide theme selection, libAdapta apps follow the theme and use the proper window controls. libAdwaita also provides a compatibility header which makes it easy for developers to switch between libAdwaita and libAdapta without requiring code changes." This became necessary because, as the Mint team observes, libAdwaita "identifies as a GNOME-only platform" and its developers refused to include theme support, something which is required to make applications look natural on non-GNOME desktops.
